Resumen:
In this paper I present an activity sequencebased on the trailer of Love, Simon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykHeGtN4m94), ateen comedy drama film based on the novel Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by BeckyAlbertalli (Albertalli, 2016). The film tells the story of Simon, a gay adolescent who struggleswith coming to terms with his sexual orientation and is faced with a classmate who hasdiscovered his secret and threatens to out him. Films constitute a suitable resource to tackleissues of identity, and the versatility of digital media allows for a multiplicity of both contentand language-based activities in the context of foreign language education.
